Most of these were inexpensively produced and were made to capitalise on the martial arts phenomenon started by [Bruce Lee](/source/Bruce_Lee), whose death in 1973 left a large box-office void (hence the name change to "Bruce Le"). ## Early life Born in 1950 to a Taiwanese-Macau father and a Burmese mother, Wong studied gymnastics and martial arts in Burma before being discovered by [Shaw Brothers](/source/Shaw_Brothers), which hired him for supporting roles.[1] ## Career He was credited as Little Dragon because of his slight resemblance to Bruce Lee. He appeared in "Super Inframan," Hong Kong's answer to the transforming heroes of Japan's [Henshin](/source/Henshin) series. As Bruce Le, he was a contract player for [Shaw Brothers](/source/Shaw_Brothers), where he appeared in the science-fiction opus *[Infra-Man](/source/Infra-Man)*. He is better known, however, for his [Bruce Lee](/source/Bruce_Lee)-inspired "tribute" films, also known as "[Bruceploitation](/source/Bruceploitation)". ## Filmography (acting) - *[Infra-Man](/source/The_Super_Inframan)* (1975) -
